A one-page dictionary entry from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary describing Eickemeyer's tufted-fabric machine (Fig. 6765). The machine sets tufts of bat, yarn or roving into a felted body in a continuous operation, imitating terry, velvet, plush, shaggy goods or fur. The text explains the tuft-holder cylinder, reciprocating tuft-punches, presser-plate, steam jigger and feeding/hardening band, and is accompanied by a side-elevation diagram.
